A surgeon to the stars has revealed the most desirable chin shapes - and the most popular ones may take you by surprise. According to Harley Street's Dr De Silva, Scarlett Johansson, 32, tops the list with her distinctive heart or V- shaped chin, and Angelina Jolie, 41, with her smooth jawline, comes in second place. Dr De Silva, from the Centre for Advanced Facial Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery in West London, also notes that celebrity-inspired 'chinplants' are the fastest growing plastic surgery trend in the UK. Here, he reveals the eight most desirable chin shapes, so which one are you? 1. Heart-shaped/V-shaped chin - Scarlett Johansson This is the shape desired most of all by women when seeking changes to the shape of their chin. Dr Julian De Silva said: 'This slightly V-shaped or heart-shaped chin is the most desirable. You can see its shape very clearly in Scarlett Johansson's beautiful face.'

Square chin - Angelina Jolie This type of chin is also considered to be beautiful and striking. Completely square at the bottom, it suits both sexes. Dr De Silva said: 'This is the Gold Standard of chins and the one I am most often asked to replicate along with the V-shaped chin like Scarlett's. 'Angelina has a beautifully proportioned square chin and a profile that many woman desire. Her face is completely free from blemishes or wrinkles, too - remarkable in a woman of 41.'

Protruding chin - Reese Witherspoon This is a chin which juts forwards slightly and therefore is particularly noticeable. The most famous example for a male is the late football pundit Jimmy Hill or the American TV host Jay Leno but a more subtle example on a female is the Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon. Dr De Silva said: 'A more prominent chin is generally a facial characteristic that is less flattering - however, it can add more character and personality to a person's face.'

Dimpled chin - Christina Hendricks This is a chin with a slight kink in the middle. The most famous example for a male would be the actor John Travolta but there are lots of female stars with slightly less pronounced chin dimples such as Christina Hendricks from Mad Men. Dr De Silva said: 'Although chins with a dimple were once more popular, these have largely gone out of fashion, and some patients have preferred to have their dimple reduced, often with the use of fillers.'

Weak or receding chin - Marilyn Monroe X-rays from a cosmetic surgeon, which have surfaced since Marilyn Monroe's, death show that she did have surgery to augment her weak chin early on in her career. She had cartilage implanted into her chin in 1950 - at the outset of her Hollywood career. Dr De Silva said: 'Modern day technology in surgery has far superseded the previous techniques - a customised silicone implant offers a far superior result to what was available in 1950.'

Round chin - Duchess of Cambridge This is another very popular chin shape. It is slightly less defined than the square chin. People with round chins are said to have warm and welcoming faces.

Long chin - Jennifer Aniston People with long chins are often said to be artistic and expressive. Jennifer Aniston has a striking long chin, which Dr De Silva says really augments her facial beauty.

Short or narrow chin - Gwen Stefani If you look carefully at Gwen Stefani's face, you will see that her chin is slightly shorter than her nose. This means that her chin is slightly shorter than the artistic ideal - but it does not stop her from having a strikingly beautiful face, says Dr De Silva.
